Please tell me about your good experiences with local vets. I have been to 2 in the last 8 years and am not impressed with either. Please let me know of a great place. Thank you!

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thank you all so much for your replies! We live in south St. Petersburg, near the skyway - a fact I forgot to mention! So, we are going to try out the office in Gulfport. Thanks again for your help!

I go to Dr. James Lutz at Largo Vet Hospital and love him. He used to be the vet for the SPCA for years. He has always provided us wonderful care for our pets. When selecting a vet, consider everything that is important to you personally...ie, do they promote spay/neuter and responsible pet ownership?, do they suggest less vaccinating and only vaccinate every 2-3 as the growing trend?, do they have a good, long reputation?, are they up to date on current practices and services?, is their office and staff clean/professional?, what do others think of the vet him/herself....

I consider all of this above discounted care, but everyone is looking for somthing different.

I absolutely adore our vet! We have been seeing him for over 5 years and he is always attentive and available! His office is on 580, just west of Belcher. Maybe 1/2 a mile from Countryside Mall. Tell him K. Yeske (Tucker's Mom) referred you! :)

Gulfport Veterinary in Gulfport is excellent! The vet doesn't talk much (I call him the Vet/Soup Nazi), but the prices are unheard of and he gets the job done. (Ex: my little pup was in pain in her hind leg, the visit plus the pain meds cost me a total of $48!). So, if they're in your area, or even if they're not, it's worth the trip. Good luck, L.
